I took off for the holidays and am just getting back in to the swing of things. Well, I’m working on getting back into the swing of things. So, to get things off to great start for the new year, I participated in a group activity with coach Sharon Day. She had a group of 12 individuals join her on a conference call to design our 2008 theme.

We started by writing down books, magazines, websites, and other things that have been calling to us. Then from this list we were to see a theme emerge. I saw nothing. I saw a random list of information totally unrelated, so I thought. Then as I listened to other people describe what was happening for them through this process, I found myself becoming more and more open to the idea that there was some theme among my random things. There was!

I had listed: two theology books, one novel, a weight magazine, a home décor magazine, and two nonprofit blog. What occurred to me was that I was looking at the actual items and trying to make a connection. Then the light bulb went off, the connection wasn’t with the items, but my intention. I’m doing something NEW with these things. I’ve picked NEW reading material, and I’m trying to find NEW ways of attracting more readers to my blog. So, this must be my theme: “2008 the year of NEW THINGS.”

Stay tuned and see how this all works out.
